Xero was founded in 2006, leading the charge to bring cloud accounting tools to small businesses globally. The launch of Xero meant accountants and bookkeepers could collaborate with their small business clients in real time through our open platform to monitor their financials, simplify core compliance and run their business. Since our launch, Xero has grown into a global small business platform that services accountants and bookkeepers and small business customers directly. In addition to our core accounting solution, our platform extends to payroll, workforce management, expenses, projects, payments and other solutions depending on the region. We also have an extensive ecosystem of connected apps and connections to banks and other financial institutions helping small businesses access a range of solutions from within our platform.
Our global team of Xeros are driven by our purpose to make life better for people in small business, their advisors and communities around the world. We work hard to enable our people to do the best work of their lives by aligning and embedding our purpose, values and culture within everything we do.
